Abstract
Systems and methods for verifying mapping information are provided. In some aspects, a method includes receiving control data acquired in an area of interest, the control data comprising a plurality of control points, and receiving mapping data associated with the area of interest, the mapping data comprising a plurality of mapping points that correspond to the plurality control points. The method also includes applying a localization algorithm to the control data to generate a control track, and applying the localization algorithm to the mapping data to generate a mapping track. The method further includes comparing the control track and the mapping track to determine a difference.
Claims20
A method for verifying mapping information, the method comprising:
- receiving control data acquired in an area of interest, the control data comprising a plurality of control points;
- receiving mapping data associated with the area of interest, the mapping data comprising a plurality of mapping points that correspond to the plurality control points;
- applying a localization algorithm to the control data to generate a control track;
- applying the localization algorithm to the mapping data to generate a mapping track;
- and
- comparing the control track and the mapping track to determine a difference.
A system for verifying mapping information, the system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- at least one memory comprising instructions executable by the at least one processor, the instructions causing the system to:
- receive control data acquired in an area of interest, the control data comprising a plurality of control points;
- receive mapping data associated with the area of interest, the mapping data comprising a plurality of mapping points that correspond to the plurality control points;
- apply a localization algorithm to the control data to generate a control track;
- apply the localization algorithm to the mapping data to generate a mapping track;
- compare the control track and the mapping track to determine a difference;
- and
- generate, using the difference, a report indicating a suitability of the mapping data for a predetermined application;
- and
- a display for providing the report to a user.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for identifying data suitable for mapping, carrying one or more sequences of one or more instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause an apparatus to perform steps to:
- receive control data acquired in an area of interest, the control data comprising a plurality of control points;
- receive mapping data associated with the area of interest, the mapping data comprising a plurality of mapping points that correspond to the plurality control points;
- apply a localization algorithm to the control data to generate a control track;
- apply the localization algorithm to the mapping data to generate a mapping track;
- and
- comparing the control track and the mapping track to determine a difference.
